BURN

Story Behind The Song

My brother passed some years back. He didn't want any of us to hang onto his death. He lived life to the fullest while he was here. He pushed the envelope. Many people who heard this song, including those who came back from Iraq, asked if they could play it at their friends funerals. Others asked the same. They said they thought their friends would have wanted to people to know they felt this way. That they had "LIVED" life to the fullest while they were here and had gone on to a higher place.

Lyrics

When I die let me burn
Place me in the cheapest urn
Take a cruise in memory
Throw my ashes out to sea

Take a plane somewhere foreign
Where the wind is blowin and the rain is pourin
Have some coffee smoke some dope
Go and push the envelope

This is life you life you die
Leave the body say goodbye
You're in the ocean in the sky
Everywhere and Nowhere now

I Love you more than time can tell
In Universes parallel
Life is like a carousel
Round and round hello, farewell

Please don't sit around and weep
Don't think too deep or lose much sleep
Find someone to get into
I'll be watchin over you

This is life you life you die
Leave the body say goodbye
You're in the ocean in the sky
Everywhere and Nowhere now

When I die let me burn
Place me in the cheapest urn
Take a cruise in memory
Throw my ashes out to sea
